A Manhattan grand jury will not meet until late April to review evidence in the hush money investigation into former President Donald Trump.
Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg has been investigating alleged hush money payments of $130,000 made by Trump to adult film star Stormy Daniels.
The grand jury will hear evidence on two other cases on Monday and Wednesday before a two-week hiatus.
Bragg does have the power as Attorney General to change the schedule, but that remains unlikely.
